Test drive: 2021 Ford Mustang Mach 1<\/h4>\n

The 2021 Ford Mustang Mach 1 is the latest in a line of high performance Mustangs that dates back to 1969 and very different than the brand’s other "Mach" model, according to Fox News Autos Editor Gary Gastelu.<\/p>\n

The Mustang name may be on an electric vehicle these days, the Mustang Mach-E, but there’s piston power in the pony car’s future.<\/p>\n

Ford has confirmed that an all-new seventh generation Mustang sports car will be entering production soon at the Flat Rock, Michigan, factory that builds the model today.<\/p>\n

The announcement as accompanied by a video with the sound of a revving internal combustion engine making the signature noise of a V8.<\/p>\n

It also included a graphic of a six-speed manual transmission’s shifter knob, which isn’t needed for an electric vehicle.<\/p>\n

The news comes after several prototypes for the new Mustang equipped with exhaust pipes have been spotted being tested on public roads.<\/p>\n

Ford did not say when the new Mustang will be on sale, but indications are that it will be introduced next year as a 2024 model vehicle.<\/p>\n

And it may still be bringing some electrification along for the ride. Ford dealers were told last year that a hybrid version of the Mustang is slated for 2025, according to Automotive News.<\/p>\n

But a Ford patent suggests even that one might be powered by a V8.<\/p>\n

The recent filing described a powertrain that combined a V8 engine with two electric motors mounted to its sides that could drive the front wheels of a vehicle while the V8 sends its power to the rear through a conventional transmission, which would create the first all-wheel-drive Mustang ever made.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
